When you say highway capable, what are you looking to do? Get to the woods or drive to Denver?

Sounds like you are wanting a dualsport.

Have you considered an XT250? It will handle 70mph, is EFI (after 2012), and has outstanding MPG.

Another option would be an XT350, such as this:

(I have no affiliation with the sale).

What's your actual goal here? Why a 650+?
After a 45 year old full dress harley anything is going to feel nimble.

I live in Pueblo and a ride to Denver would not be out of the question. (in the back of my mind is Prudhoe Bay and Central America, but those trips if they happen are a ways off) Two up is also a possibility although not frequent.
